One last try on this grenade. No responses previously, though I've seen it at several locations, two in the NL. I note that though the fuze is different, its size and shape are very similar to some of the underwater signal devices, any possibility it is an early model?

I'm slowly wrapping this up, still a few to go. 8195 looks close to Mecar to me, but was identified locally as Hungarian as well as 8183.

Hi US-Subs
AMS 8183.jpg
What is the diameter of that rifle grenade (body) - 68mm ?
Akon
 
Logged as 49mm, end photo looks pretty close.
Hi US-Subs
My opinion on the object: It is a development in Czechoslovakia of a rifle grenade later designated as PG-68, approx. 1968 is not the caliber but the year of development. Neither the weapon nor the rifle grenade was ultimately introduced into the army.
